[quote=Anonymous]Let's say you're a WAHM and your regular nanny is out of town. Your grandkid-crazy MIL offered to come and watch your kids for a few days. You offer to pay her, she refuses, offended by the idea. While she is staying with you, you prep all the meals, breakfast, lunch and dinner for the family. But she doesn't lift a finger to do any clean-up or help in meal preparation. And while she picks up toys that are strewn about, she does not do any general light housekeeping of any sort. In the evenings, after you prepare dinner for everyone, and everyone eats, you are in the kitchen, cleaning up the table, dishes and kitchen, while she relaxes on the couch. Would you think it odd that your MIL doesn't offer any help with meals or clean up, or would you think that's normal, considering she is taking care of the kids for most of the day?[/quote]
